When our thoughts are calm and our minds in their natural state of tranquillity, we can take better decisions in life including financial decisions. Also, yoga resonates with our values at Century Financial which supports and invests in its CSR theme — health, wealth and happiness, supporting mental and physical well-being of all."

In line with World Environment Day, sustainability and global development are important and it’ll be great if we can contribute to it by activating and inspiring the yoga community. Lastly, in addition to the health benefits, practising yoga also disciplines the way we think and helps in practising calm amidst the chaos which is essential in the field of finance and investments," Krishnen added.

Century Financial aims to continue maintaining this practice of introducing its employees to healthy lifestyle habits throughout the year.
